Manna - Bread from Heaven: Jn 6:22-59 in the Light of PS 78:23-25 and Its Interpretation in Early Jewish Sources
ISBN: 9783631653616 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 161 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The author presents a new approach to the study of manna, which does not concentrate only on one particular representation of the bread from heaven (especially Ex 16). Additionally, he investigates the interconnections between Ps 78:23-25, Wis 16:20-13; 19:21 and Jn 6:22-59 and he explores the new ideas of each of these texts. He also strongly asserts that Hellenistic Judaism, represented by the Book of Wisdom, is not -a second-class Judaism-. This fact is proved with the example of manna as the food of immortality, an idea not introduced by Christians in the Fourth Gospel, but already...

One is the official version insisting that the Chapel is nothing more than a place of simple piety and worship,...
